Two Cups By ArtGuru 0010B, 24x36 - Acrylic On Paper Print

ABOUT THE PRINT: Two Cups By ArtGuru 0010, 24x36, - Acrylic On Paper This is a beautiful LatroArt print done by ArtGuru. ArtGuru is an originator and developer of LatroArt. “Latro” derives from the word “Latrodectus”—a genus of spiders, most of which are black widows. LatroArt can be defined as “to draw and paint using the elements and principles of spider-web construction.” Of course, spiders use many techniques to create webs. LatroArt is where the lines are exaggerated to define form. In the normal painting process, the relative lightness or darkness of color defines form. Sharp contrasts in value within a composition may set the boundaries of forms. Gradations of value or shading also create the illusion of contour and volume. However, with LatroArt, ArtGuru creates an image mostly using lines such that the use of the contour line is minimal. The lines are placed in a way so that the movement and energy in the tracks have a continuous flow. The placement of lines in this way give birth to the three-dimensional shape. The illusion of depth and form is created by merely tweaking the lines. When these principles are used in artwork, this technique is called LatroArt. As a kid, I loved adventure and was always curious about everything I saw. Spider webs fascinated me. I would watch the slow webbing process for hours. I was being inspired with the process. Who knew that one day I would invent a new style of painting using the web process as a reference? For a few days in 2002, I stayed with a friend in his basement apartment. The place was dark and infested with spiders. One bit me, and when I returned from the Emergency Room, I found myself staring at the spider’s web. For a minute, I forgot about the bite. I got lost in the world of imagination, and LatroArt was born. That bite was a good one!
